What does Kythnos smell like?

Lavender comes first, and thyme in the heart adds a spicy, herbal edge. Vetiver in the base strengthens the woody, earthy side, while the smoky note stays in the background. The overall impression is dry and airy rather than sweet.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and autumn, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen settings. Though it is unisex, votes lean masculine and classic. Its profile is close to Roger & Gallet Open and Hermès Bel Ami Vétiver.
